Profile

Welcome to the Chair for Empirical Social Research at the University of Konstanz (Department of History and Sociology). Our research and teaching focus on current problems and challenges in the field of empirical sociology.

Besides methodological questions, we address labor market processes, social inequality, discrimination on markets, social network analysis, demography, and the structure of the scientific system.

The chair contributes to the Center for Quantitative Methods and Survey Research (CMS) at the University of Konstanz and to an infrastructure tool for social network analysis (together with Ulrich Brandes).
